So we've hit the 1/3 marker of the season.
Team record: 33-21
On pace to go 99-63. Does anyone really believe they can win 99 games? I don't. But I do believe they are a legitimate playoff candidate. And getting Cano back in mid-August will be the equivalent of picking up an all star at the trade deadline.
Record versus teams under .500: 24-12
Record versus teams over .500: 9-9
Yeah, the schedule has been fairly easy so far.
Record through April 23rd: 11-10. Since April 24th: 22-11
Longest winning streak: 4 games, accomplished twice.
Who are our all stars?
The candidates, in my opinion: Segura, Haniger, Diaz, Paxton. Diaz and Paxton are can't miss. I just don't see how Francona and company can find any reason to snub these guys. Segura may not make it. There are several shortstops in the AL having a good season. Haniger will probably get snubbed unless he goes on a solid tear.
Team MVP so far?
That's a tough one. Segura, Haniger, Diaz and Paxton are all deserving in their own way. Dee Gordon and Robby Cano would also be in the mix if they had not missed games. I think I'm going with Segura mainly because he plays everyday whereas Paxton only plays every fifth day and Diaz only pitches one inning per game.
Final stats of players if they kept their current pace:
Paxton 209 IP, 270K, 12-4 record, 2.93/0.96/131 (ERA+)
Diaz 85 IP, 141K, 57 saves, 1.59/0.71/258 (LOL)
Gonzales 180 IP, 159K, 15-9 record, 3.28/1.33/113 (Paxton and Gonzales are the only starters with an ERA+ over 100
Leake 197IP, 15-9 record
Felix 184IP, 153K, 15-12 record
Zunino 24 HR, 54 RBI
Healy 24 HR, 66 RBI
Segura 12 HR, 105 RBI, 111 runs scored, 216 hits, 36 steals
Seager 27 HR, 96 RBI
Cruz 27 HR, 72 RBI (both totals will go up if he avoids further injury
Gordon despite missing 25 games, if he stays on his current pace: 114 runs, 225 hits, 73 steals
Haniger 33 HR, 117 RBI, 81 runs scored
Team record: 33-21
